General Interests
Child Life Therapy/Play and Toy Assistant
Support the Child Life Therapy team in this rewarding role. Tasks include selecting and providing toys and equipment to children on the wards, helping develop resources, preparing and washing toys, and spending time playing with children at the bedside or in play areas.
This role supports therapists to deliver the best care possible and would suit someone with an interest or background in children’s services or teaching.
Shifts are negotiable.
Library for Children
Support our Book Nook, a purpose-built children’s library, in this rewarding role. You will visit wards with a mobile trolley, help children and families choose books, and assist with cleaning, organising, and re-shelving returned items.
This role suits someone with library experience or a love of books. While the role does not typically involve reading to children, there may be occasional opportunities to do so.
Shifts are available on weekdays from 9:30am to 11:30am
